    Nice job on the repair. Can't tell where any damage may have been.
    What kind of finish are on ur bumpers? I need to have mine redone.

    carb

    How do you like that 4100 does it work well with your setup I am thinking of running the same carb on my long rod 302 by the way you have a very nice mav there.

    it was something i wanted to try, for a stock 302 this would be near perfect, but with my cam, compression and general setup it isnt ideal, it starts and idles great but would need massive mods to ever function correctly.
